I saw this movie/musical a week ago and have fallen in love with it. The singing is near perfect, the songs are catchy, and the dance choreography is one of the best I have seen, in a musical. The bar scene is definitely worth a watch if youI saw this movie/musical a week ago and have fallen in love with it. The singing is near perfect, the songs are catchy, and the dance choreography is one of the best I have seen, in a musical. The bar scene is definitely worth a watch if you can find it online, but the whole movie is entertaining. The stories pacing is good as well. Only problem are some inconsistencies with the real life events, but this is easily overlooked with the whimsy this film delivers. Also I should mention I typically do not like musicals but this one captivated me. Absolutely worth a watch, at least once in your life.… Expand

Reaction images. The movie. Wholesome entertainment. Better than Disney's musicals like Frozen and Beauty and the Beast.

"For anyone pregnant with a dream" ~ from the film.

If you liked the Fame movie (1980) or the best parts of the Step Up series, this is for you. Better than the Step Up installments I've seen. I liked it quite a bit more than La La Land. Where La La narratively adheres to telling a realistic tale of lovers coming together--then coming part in Los Angeles, Showman is burdened with no such reality to conform to. Barnum's life is skillfully made into a series of familiar narrative tropes which give weight and gravity to almost non-stop sing-dance numbers which really fly. "Hit it out of the parK" in a baseball phrase. If you remember Stomp on YouTube or on stage, still playing in NYC stomponline.com, some numbers in Showman have the same precise musicality of sound effects; and, random background sounds are always musical. If you thought the directorial challenges of tone etc in La La Land were formidable, I did too. All those challenges plus more and done mostly better here in Showman. I love Hugh Jackman. This is him in top Broadway form. Showman offers a "great moment in cinema," the scene where Zac Efron is introduced to Zendays on ultra-slo-motion trapese. Check the stills to see this in its full beauty with the underlighting of her body. For me, Showman revealed two new female stars, Zendaya and Rebecca Ferguson. Hit it out of the park. I watched an hour interview on FX Guide with directory Michael Gracey. I felt he had integrity, another typical introverted genius type I can relate with.… Expand

Extremely uplifting and enjoyable movie about enduring through hard times with dreams of success in the entertainment industry.

I only could see negative about this movie that it wasn't based on true story, and I guess many who ended upExtremely uplifting and enjoyable movie about enduring through hard times with dreams of success in the entertainment industry.

I only could see negative about this movie that it wasn't based on true story, and I guess many who ended up giving a bad vote are audience of Honest Trailers who have to find every single fault of any movie and ridicule it, easy for you to do when all your content is basically recycling criticism as if it was discovered yesterday.

Every movie has its own faults and in the internet age everyone has gotten so hyper critical about everything even as shiny as this movie was on it's performance and music, it still got a large sum of people who were upset about music and plot. This is the same audience who praises old movies like American Pie because it was born before internet age because it happens to have 1 nude scene, the same audience who went to watch all of the sequels because you guessed it, boobs.

Get a **** reality check everyone. This movie deserves at least 8.5 score.

If movie like Fifth Element was made today it would receive audience score of 6 if not worse, but because it's old classic it has to be rated ~9, you got to be joking me.

You want me to tear down Fifth Element to pieces?

1. Plot takes forever to take place after first introduction.

2. The smaller main villain looks ridiculous with his fake plastic face. Looks like the suit was made in 10 minutes after knitting few curtain cloths together. The guy almost choked himself. 3. The world is saved by some retired special forces guy because apparently world has run out of special forces units...?

4. First action for everything, lets just shoot at it.

5. Priests are still a thing in year 3000.

6. How isn't the military aware of the ancients and their technology? I thought military was supposed to be aware of dangers that could expose humankind to destruction?

I mean military even warns about damage caused by climate change and it's not really their specialty.

7. The fact this supposed super weapon to defeat evil has to be located on earth... for some strange reason.

8. Why does every scifi movie have to be some ends day doom scenario that ends the world?

9. Artificially build tension for last seconds. I kinda get how the main bad guy is a planet and everything. But whole reason why the planet was forming so far out of solar system was just to build the tension of it reaching earth where world could be ended if the plant just formed couple seconds closer to earth.

If you look at Fifth Element it has all the stereotypical plot devices from action movie where bomb is replaced by the super weapon, time is replaced by how close the planet is, main villains are your stereotypical bad guys who just want to harm people, every movie has some average Joe Nobody who used to be though guy return to service just for 1 last mission while he's struggling with his private life. Scifi is just there for added spice into the movie, but over 50% of the scifi is just added annoyance that's not even pleasing to watch.

Just for example the Ruby Rhod who is this outspoken black guy with weird hair is just a comedic relief where everyone goes like "yeah show that talking head that guns go boom, he so scared", where have we seen this before? Pretty much every single action movie where some person watching the show is out of touch of how the real world operates, gets shown by the main hero how the "real world" operates, further progressing the idea that a nerd who doesn't solve his problems with violence is somehow weak individual while some barking dog who punches every guy who doesn't please him is a though good guy who fights for the weak, it's not like world is brainwashed by the media enough, the movie just propagates bad messages all over the place.

-

So yeah it's easy for anyone to break the ice and find problems on every single movie, unless it's literally documentary, and even then there's probably problem with pacing for some individuals, just look how poor reviews the First Man got (7.4/10) from Metacritic.

I guess only way to reach above 9 score is to embrace brainless entertainment these days and have a joke every 10 minutes otherwise audience of mouth breathing 10 year olds get bored.

And then people criticize why Marvel is always making their movies so deliberately unserious, well when you get a serious movies like the Infinity War 1 or 2, they get immediately criticized for minor details or not having enough action or there being too much action.

Take a **** step back already from your ivory towers of criticism and ask yourself how would you make the movie any better and how many would be willing to pay to watch it?

If you actually would want to watch something new, well it's been tried many many times and nearly everyone in the audience HATED IT, as this movie clearly shows.… Expand

The soundtrack is one of my top 5 favorite movie soundtracks of all time and one of my favorite albums of all time. The acting performances were stupendous especially Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron, Zendaya, and Rebecca Ferguson as well as Keala Settle, Sam Humphrey, and Paul Sparks.

It does exactly what it sets out to do - to put on a glorious show in circus style, exciting, musical, theatrical, maybe a little dangerous, a big-top containing a little world apart from the reality of day to day life. You know as you are watching that it's all done with mirrors; that any connection with the history is tenuous, that there is a real story somewhere outside that is much less bright and shiny; you know its all fake. But, who cares? - its the circus and it's fun. You will walk out humming and wanting to dance.
I also thought the film was cleverer than it first appears - asking some genuine questions about what is real and what is not when it comes to entertainment. Critics have got it wrong.

If you absolutely loved "La La Land," you probably won't like "The Greatest Showman." However, I was not a huge fan of "La La Land," and I found "The Greatest Showman" to be absolutely brilliant. It follows the life of P.T. Barnum and the creation of the circus. In comparison to "La La Land," "Showman" had amazing music with deeply moving lyrics. "Showman" also had important things to say, when "La La Land" did not. "Showman" is a celebration of individuality and encourages its audience to not only follow your heart, but to follow your conscience. It also places great emphasis on family. The story is very well done and the characters are well portrayed and somewhat have depth. But again, I hated "La La Land." If you enjoyed "La La Land," you will probably not like "Showman." They really have little in common.… Expand

I haven't even seen that many movies in 4 years and those were Star Wars and Jumanji. Each time I go I take someone new. A great spectacle, unbelievable camera work and I have no words for the music and choreography. I woke up after first seeing it with the music in my head, like what??? But immediately bought it and everyone who has seen the movie or ridden with me loves the soundtrack. I know a lot of critics harp on how awful Barnum really was, but that has squat to do with this movie. This is entertainment, not a biography. Pure fun rollicking make you move, sing, smile, laugh entertainment. And I saw one 0 review, they hated the music and the dancing. I know every one has different tastes, but I know for a fact I would not like that person. Wow, seriously? If this can't make you enjoy yourself for a bit of time and the song and dance, I really would be scared to meet you. This is heartwarming, fun, has good messages for this day and time and is one of the top 3 movies I have ever seen.

I could never and will never find a reason to hate this movie. It is really a window to our world that a person is a person no matter what and we all need to love eachother. I love the romance between Zendaya and Zac efron. This movie has amazing content in it and every person can learn tons of lessons from this movie. The love between familes and the relationships between the stage family is powerful and a glorious thing to see. If this movie were a book, I would not do anything other than read it until I finished and would never put it down. Three words.... GO SEE IT.… Expand

This was magnificent piece of art, music and deep story. The actors did a perfect job. The songs were so amazing. I really liked that not every sentence was delivered by singing, but that there were just regular speaking parts and songs between. So even if you are not into musicals its very good movie for you. The songs and the energy in them were just awesome. There was not even a second where I would feel bored or not entertained. The story is amazing as well. Although some people may say the main character is in real life not as amazing as in the movie or was just selling not a real truth, well I am here not to judge, everyone has his opinion and no matter how it was, I just take it as it was inspired by some person with a great idea and its not documentary about his life so as a movie if its totally true or not, I dont think it matters. As a movie the story was amazing and very deep. I think everyone should see this movie. I wanted to watch it again right away after it finished.… Expand

I amI am going against the grain here, and it seems that a lot of the audiences love this flick a lot. Guess what? They are right. The Greatest Showman is a stunning achievement that is being marginalized for its crowd pleasing tendencies. I am going to compare this to La La Land in which the former has reinvogarated the musicals, yet have casts, brilliant that they were who couldn't sing or dance. The Greatest Showman, Jackman included, is the complete opposite. These are casts that are more suited to a musical, with singing and dancing skills on the level on any Broadway shows around. Headlining this is obviously Jackman himself in a tour de force performance, singing and dancing away. This along with stellar casting: Michelle Williams, Zach Efron, Zendaya and the rest made this an unforgettable experience. The soundtrack is absolutely great and are literally the heart and soul of this film. It will leave you toe tapping your way out of the theater.… Expand

Okay, like other musicals like Oliver, Grease, Footloose and many more, they are bursting to go see a musical in cinemas when they saw the trailers of it. The result would be The Greatest Showman and they love it to death. They can't stopOkay, like other musicals like Oliver, Grease, Footloose and many more, they are bursting to go see a musical in cinemas when they saw the trailers of it. The result would be The Greatest Showman and they love it to death. They can't stop singing the songs and they can't stop talking about it. I mean, love it, I mean, obsessed. Someone has recommending me to watch it and you know what? I did. And I gotta say that I love it and I gotta say that the songs are really impressive. I still gotta say that I'm not a huge gigantic fan of the new songs that people have put out in Capital FM and many other radio's. I can tell now that they don't make the songs sound old fashioned anymore at least sometimes. Much like the live-action Beauty and the Beast, the songs make this movie the highlight. Hugh Jackman is great as P. T. Barnum and Zac Efron is once again doing a musical since High School Musical and Hairspray. They're both fantastic in this. Did you know that the idea of this is when Hugh Jackman is singing at the beginning of the Oscars in 2009? Well, I know that after I've finished the film. The Greatest Showman is something that many people cannot stop talking about and singing the songs and is something that is recommended for people who are hugest fans of musicals like I am. The songs are very memorable and my favourite song out of all of them is got to be "From Now On". Don't you just love Hugh Jackman's singing voice? And the dancing is great and you can't go wrong here. The only flaw the movie has is the fact that the critics didn't like it mostly getting mixed reviews but for me, I have absolutely no idea. You can tell that Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert are not around anymore. So anyways, it's very well choreographed and crafted and a dream come true for everyone who's got the album. Hey, hopefully they'll make a musical play out of it.… Expand

Anything you can say against a carnival can be said against this movie. The story was not the best in the world, the special effects were sometimes a bit wonky looking, and it was quite a bit fake when it came to telling the story of P. T. Barnum. However, this also applies vice versa, as this movie perfectly captures magic and shows it to the audience. The music in the movie is incredible, the choreography is amazing, the interaction between Barnum and his daughters is magical. Heck, even the wonky special effect only make this movie seem more fantastical!

All in all, this movie captures the magic of the carnival, along with the downsides that go along with it. If you are willing to look past the inconsistencies that go along with it, be prepared for a magical experience whose music will be stuck in your head all day and bright colors will make you have a smile nearly permanently plastered on your face.… Expand

When Hugh Jackman kisses a bearded lady you know one of either 2 things, A) he is a madman; or, B) you’re watching the greatest movie about a showman, which would be ‘The Greatest Showman’.

The Greatest Showman is definitely a feel good movie, where Jackman’s character takes a quick trip to the island of misfit toys to show the world that they can put on a show. And they do so, so 9 out of 10 stars. I do believe this film will find its audience even tho so far it has failed at the boxoffice with such competition as Last Jedi and Jumanji during the holiday season releases.

It was so, so amazingly wonderful.

Ignore the other critics telling you it isn’t “historically accurate”. Unfortunately, these are the people that go to a film made with love and passion and leave with a heaviness in their heart.

There is no denying P.T. Barnum said such things as “another sucker is born every minute”. There is no denying that he was a swindler and a con man.
Yet I ask how petty one must be to disregard a movie made with a love adamant in every frame, made for the love of telling a whimsical story, made to bring those who feel out of place together in a profound unity, simply because it is not historically accurate?

The Greatest Showman is a film celebrating the strength and whimsy of humanity. It is a film made to show people with scars and that they are proud of such scars. In every single frame there is a love and passion and dedication that shines through that I have not seen in so many years.

Please, I beg you to go see this movie. Because a movie is not historically accurate should not define what it is and make is message of vivid colors and wonderful humanity invalid. Go see this movie. I promise, you will leave with a smile, as I did.… Expand

Unfortunately, many of the events that took place during the film are not exactly historically accurate. All things aside, the lack of historically accuracy did not take away much from the film. The "musical" aspect of the film was not overwhelming and appealed to all people in my party at the theater and not just the musical fans. The story line is simply accompanied with music sung by the cast that is relevant to what is going on in the film. It is not too "Musically".

It will be one of my favorites!! Some parts made P.T. Barnum seem like a good guy but in real life he wasn't the best man. I did like what they turned P.T. Barnum! I don't mind that the whole story in the movie isn't based of the true story. If it was then it would be a really depressing musical and that would be a thumbs down. My overall review would be that I really really liked the movie and I feel that you should do, the songs are super catchy and get stuck in your head. The story had some inspiration and some romance (no sexual scenes) the movie is great for kids. P.S. ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS IS THE OTHER SIDE BY THE WAY!… Expand

I only saw this film on the basis that the alpha male of the street said it was okay, I was drawn into the story and the music, which has now become household in the uk.

Storyline was a tad predictable but has a real good feel factor, will leave you feeling great and tapping your feet when you leave the cinema. As for the people that slate the film, I can honestly say that all the people that pass though my salon, and that's a lot, not one has a bad thing to say.… Expand

A great movie that inspires individuals to dream and overcome obstacles. The Greatest Showman also provides a fabulous soundtrack and well choreographed dance scenes.

I have no idea why critics crapped all over this film. While the CGI at times is overused, unnecessary, and at times pretty bad, the music is solid and the performances are committed and enjoyable.

Most of the core complaints against this film seems to be that of the differences between P.T. Barnum in real life and PT Barnum in the film, played wonderfully by Hugh Jackman.

Barnum in real life and PT Barnum in the film, played wonderfully by Hugh Jackman. The movie starts off really well and it does leave you with some clues to who PT Barnum was before he became the "Greatest Showman," the problem really lays in the middle where two many plot lines, subpolots, ect start to intertwine and the film starts to feel overwhelming. However, the film really starts to pick back up towards the end where alot of the enjoyment really can be had. The movie is very solidly made, it could have benefited from a more polished director but the cast (Jackman, Efron, Zendaya, to name a few), visuals, set pieces and score give the movie the boost it needs to recover from a murky middle.

Who cares if the story isn't quite true at every step. If I want truth I'd look it up on Wikipedia. "The Greatest Showman" gives us an hour and 45 minutes of what we go to the movies for. So, forget the critics. Check it out for yourself.… Expand

Fun family-friendly movie and well acted. If you liked Moulin Rouge, I'm guessing you'll like this. I'm sure they embellished the story of P.T. Barnum, but that's fine.
